When I compile with -fsanitize=address, GCC/Clang implicitly make use of an ASAN dynamic library which provides runtime support for ASAN. If your built library is dynamically loaded by another application, it is necessary to set LD_PRELOAD to include this dynamic library, so that it gets run at application start up time.
It is often not obvious which copy of libasan.so GCC/Clang expects to use, because there may be multiple copies of ASAN on your system (if you have multiple compilers installed.) Is there a reliable way to determine the location of the shared library you need to load?
